Because the current Barrett's esophagus (BE) surveillance protocol suffers from sampling error of random biopsies and a high miss-rate of early neoplastic lesions, many new endoscopic imaging and sampling techniques have been developed. None of these...
This work aims to develop a voxel-level dose prediction framework by integrating distance information between PTV and OARs, as well as image information, into a densely-connected network (DCNN). Firstly, a four-channel feature map, consisting of a PT...
Randomized trials have demonstrated that ablation of dysplastic Barrett's esophagus can reduce the risk of progression to cancer. Endoscopic resection for early stage esophageal adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma can significantly reduce post...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Recent advances in deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have led to remarkable results in digestive endoscopy. In this study, we aimed to develop CNN-based models for the differential diagnosis of benign esophageal protruded...
PURPOSE: The robot-assisted approach for Ivor Lewis esophagectomy offers an enlarged, three-dimensional overview of the intraoperative situs. The vagal nerve (VN) can easily be detected, preserved, and intentionally resected below the separation poin...

BACKGROUND: Deep learning is promising to predict treatment response. We aimed to evaluate and validate the predictive performance of the CT-based model using deep learning features for predicting pathologic complete response to neoadjuvant chemoradi...
BACKGROUND: Whether robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RAMIE) is more beneficial than conventional minimally invasive surgery (MIE) remains unclear.
